Hey there! I noticed on your signature you are expecting a baby girl, and one of your favorite boy names is "Tor."
Have you considered Tori for a girl name? I've always loved it and think it is beautiful by itself (meaning not short for Victoria or anything).

Thanks. I do too wish Sherlock was not monopolized by Sherlock Holmes as it's a really cool name, and I love the possibility of nickname Lockie. I wish I was brave enough to use the others, especially Amadeus, as my mother loves Mozart, so that would be an indirect way to honor her.

Thanks, Sara! This is the longest I've gone without feeling the need to change the names up, which is what I've been hoping for. Sometimes I worry Thisbe Wildrose sounds too much like a fairy tale name, and what if my daughter ends up being a no nonsense math nerd? Wildrose is the name of the town where my SO's deceased mother was born, so it's special to us. I love Dulcinea, btw. I knew one growing up and idolized her.

Thanks saracita! I love how Deveraux, Tristan and Riordan sound like dashing romantic heroes, and Azalea and Scarlett have a strong sound while still being totally feminine. Just curious, what kind of vibe do you get from them?
